Imbuzi, Inja neNkomo babengabangane abakhulu. Ngelinye ilanga bathatha uhambo ngetekisi.
Goat, Dog, and Cow
were great friends. One
day they went on a
journey in a taxi.
Sebefike ekugcineni nohambo lwabo, umshayeli wabe esecela ukuthi bakhokhe. Inkomo yakhokha eyayo.
When they reached the
end of their journey, the
driver asked them to
pay their fares. Cow
paid her fare.
Inja yakhokha imali ethe ukwendlula, ngoba kade Ingenayo imali eyanele.
Dog paid a bit extra,
because he did not
have the correct money.
Uma umshayeli esezilungisela ukunika Inja ushintshi wayo, Imbuzi yabaleka ngaphandle kokukhokha ngisho isenti.
The driver was about to
give Dog his change
when Goat ran away
without paying
anything.
Umshayeli wayecasuke kakhulu. Washaya Wachitha ngaphandle kokunika Inja ushintshi wayo.
The driver was very
annoyed. He drove
away without giving
Dog his change.
Yingakho, Kuze kube namhlanje Inja igijimela ngaphambi kwemoto ilunguze ngaphakathi ukuze ithole umshayeli oyikweleta ushintshi wayo.
That is why, even
today, Dog runs
towards a car to peep
inside and find the
driver who owes him his
change.
Imbuzi iyabaleka uma izwa umsindo wemoto isaba ukuthi izoboshwa ukuthi ayizange ilukhokhele uhambo eyayiluthathe nabangani bayo.
Goat runs away from
the sound of a car. She
is afraid she will be
arrested for not paying
her fare.
Inkomo ayinandaba mangabe kuza imoto. Inkomo ithatha isikhathi sayo uma iwela umgwaqo ngoba iyazi ukuthi yayikhokha yonke imali okwakufanele iyikhokhe.
And Cow is not
bothered when a car is
coming. Cow takes her
time crossing the road
because she knows she
paid her fare in full.
